Actors, Olu and Joke Jacobs welcome first grandchild

Their son, Soji and his wife, Boma have welcomed their daughter, and the baby has been named Oluwasoromidayo Atarah Owanaemi Abimbola.

Mummy J, as she is fondly called by colleagues shared how anxious she was when she heard that her daughter-in-law went into labour. She, however, thanked God for safe delivery, adding, that she can’t wait to hug them all.

“When you went into labour …my very own Blessing…my own Morounkeji..@mrsjacobs_jnr …I wasn’t expecting such anxiety!!! What!!!
